A hydrogen atom has a diameter of approximately 1.06×10?10m, as defined by the diameter of the spherical electron cloud around the nucleus. The hydrogen nucleus has a diameter of approximately 2.40×10?15m. (a) For a scale model, represent the diameter of the hydrogen atom by the length of an American football field (100 yards =300ft ) and determine the diameter of the nucleus in millimeters. mm (b) The atom is how many times larger in volume than its nucleus?
